  45. But I only got the “upgrade” because I was furious with me ex.
  46. I found out he spent a LOT of money on phone-sex calls.
  47. The main reason for the divorce, btw.
  48. I lost my virginity at 20 to my ex-husband.
  49. He never wanted sex as much as I did, so I stopped asking eventually.
  50. I had sex with someone else six weeks before the divorce was final. Is that cheating?
  51. I have been in therapy for two years.
  52. My last session is this week. I’m breaking up with her.

  66. Then, as “punishment,” he made me read a passage from the Bible as part of the Maundy Thursday service.
  67. I had to say “cock” seven times.
  68. The pastor and my then-husband stood at the back of the church and laughed at me.
  69. Some old ladies at the church thought I was having an affair with the pastor.

  77. I’d have sex every day if I could.
  78. But maybe that’s because I’m single.
  79. I like to be the center of attention.
  80. But I’m usually embarassed when I am.
  81. I think I’m pretty funny.
  82. I like to make up words and sayings.
  83. When my last bf and I would be kissing, I never could remember his name — but not because he was such a good kisser –
  84. I would have to run through a list of three or four names in my head before I got to his.
  85. I should have known that was a bad sign!
  86. My favorite song ever is “In Your Eyes” by Peter Gabriel.
  87. I also really really like “Night Moves” by Bob Seger.
  88. And “Slow” by Kylie Minogue.
  89. I collect items with sunflowers on them.
  90. One of my friends painted me a sunflower.
  91. My collection started with a sunflower my grandmother painted after my grandfather died.
  92. It’s a sad painting, but I like it because the emotion is real.
  93. For my birthday, I am going to get a small shamrock tattooed on my foot.
  94. I am Irish.
  95. Even if I marry again, I will keep my last name.
  96. Unless I marry someone with an Irish name — then I’d consider changing it to his.
  97. My first wedding was very small, in Las Vegas.
  98. I’ve considered whether my next husband should be a first-time groom. Would we get more gifts that way??

  5. Oh come on, Grins, the Fonz was h-o-t back in the day! I used to have big (like 5″ across) button with Henry Winkler’s photo atop this psychedelic background. I was young, what do you want? LOL Now he’s far from hot, but he was pretty funny on “Arrested Development.”
